*** I like evil Len... I should write a fic about Len being the main villain one day... xD ***
File D: Paste
If she had that program, I knew she'd feel what the humans called 'disappointed'. Fooling her was easier than I thought, she agreed to meet me for the past 2 days, and she was easily taken inside F. Media. I just grabbed her arm and took her inside her enemy's lair, what a fool. She's a disgrace for all androids everywhere. Though some androids could only do what the humans programmed them to, she and I were different from them. We had 'free will'. We could even 'think' from a point of view, able to wonder like humans.
Sometimes I think some androids are better than humans. Though there aren't much android in the world, I could only name 3 androids; CV01-MIKU, CV02-RIN and myself. As the newest android to be 'born' I play a large role in F. Media, to spread viruses everywhere, specifically to Crypton.
I could see her jaw dropped when I revealed what is under my thick layers of clothes. Honestly, I didn't feel cold at all. Even though I could feel the temperature around me, I don't need warmth to survive; I could make 'warmth'. If she saw me clearly, without thick clothes whatsoever, then she'd recognize me somehow. I could tell she scanned me a few times, with a .txt file saying 'That boy is similar to me' popped up in her 'head'.
Of course we're similar; Master Ronald took a peek at CV02-Rin's design after all. The only difference between she and I was that I am the upgraded male version. All the flaws inside her, they were fixed already by those people.
"What…?" I didn't understand why, but she looked shock. Her expression looked almost human, just like those people when they were 'feeling' shocked.
"I was made a few months after you were made. A 'reliable source' said Crypton was developing an android, and so F. Media was curious. Why would Crypton make an android? It has nothing to do with PC, isn't it? Master Ronald took a peek at your design, and those people studied it. You don't know how much errors you have in your system, don't you?" I may be a copy-pasted work, but at least my system works better than hers.
"So you're just a copy of me?"
'Activating: Wrath and Pride Program'
That failed creation dared call me just a copy? I shouldn't have played nice from the beginning. Although… betrayal is a nice form of torture. My 'eyes' examined her from head to toe. Since our design is similar, sheshouldhave a belt.
"I'm an upgraded version. I have a better system and design, and I am more useful. For example, you have a belt, don't you?" I grabbed my belt, in the wrong hands; it could be a weapon to exterminate any living creature, and androids. Inmyhands, I view my auburn belt as a lethal weapon.
'Receiving message…'
I was about to strangle and pound her down to the elevator's floor, when an annoying message came.
'DON'T damage her, Len. We want NO scratch inside or outside of her when you hand her over to us.' That made my work harder than before. After all, violence is the easiest way to solve problem.
'De-Activating: Wrath Program'
"What do you want?" I heard her say. The two of us would together for the next couple of hours; I might as well fill it with conversations and trade information. I could tell she's loyal to her master; it'd be hard to fool her and get information needed. Who knows, if I get additional information about Crypton, I just might get praised for once by those people.
"At first, those people told me to bring you to them so you could be experimented. But then I received a message saying that I have to bring you to them unharmed. So, let me ask again. How much longer can you survive without battery? In my data base, if you're fully charged you'll last for a max of 12 hours." All I needed was to wait for a couple of hours, I needed to wait until she'd shut down.
I could go 35 hours without battery, and I had 97% battery life remaining. Again, from the look of her face, I could tell she could only last for a couple of more hours. Just in case, I changed my power plan to 'power saver' so my battery could last longer.
I leaned to the elevator's wall as I waited for her to shut down. I really wanted to hibernate (sleep) but I had to keep an eye on her, she's Crypton's hacker, someone not to be underestimated.
"Experimented…?" She muttered. Was her system not responding? I thought she'd respond to my 'threat' faster than that. It'd be enjoyable to see her tremble in fear, if shehasthe program fear. I don't have that program 'fear', since it wasn't necessary.
"Do you not know what the definition of 'experiment' is? They're going to do a bit research inside your system; surely you have upgrades from the last few months?" And those upgrades were the things I must have. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't break through her firewall, and above all she could erase my virus easily.
"The upgrades I receive from Putin-sama, they won't be useful for hacking. There are seven additional programs installed from the last few months. I'm sure those seven extra programs won't be useful for F. Media, but I'm sure those seven programs are useful for you" Seven? That's more than I expected, I was anxious for those people to experiment her.
"And those are the things I'm…we're after." A slight error. I'm supposed to include those people even though all they could do is order me to do things.
"I told you already. The new seven programs installed in me aren't going to be useful for F. Media. It's only going to be useful for you. I… really think you should install it in your system." That made my 'head' wonder for a bit. Those seven programs could give an advantage to me, but not those people? That sounded nice, I like it. Those people don't deserve anything.
"And those programs are…?" Since she wanted me to have it, she'd tell me what programs they are, wouldn't she? She leaned to the elevator's wall like me, her eyes shone dimmer than before. She probably activated the power saver. Just a matter of time before she'd shut down.
"Happiness, sadness, anger, envy, spirit / will and the newest, love." From those seven, I had three already. How useless, no wonder she said it won't be good for the company, those programs were useless.
I had seven as well; lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, pride, greed, and sloth. They activated at different times, most of the times I feel satisfaction from that program pride.
"Useless programs." I moaned. So, I 'befriended' with her for nothing? Those programs are useless to me, how can I use it?
"They're not useless! You just don't know that feeling when those programs activates."
'Activating: Sloth Program '
How troublesome, I shouldn't have responded to her in the first place. Ignoring her was a great option, but I wanted her to suffer just a bit. I feel… pleased every time I see a spark of pain on her face.
"You're talking like a human. Aren't you similar to me? You're also a tool created by Crypton, aren't you?" It took her longer to respond to my comeback, but she managed to answer.
"That's because… I want to be like humans. And I'm not just a tool, there's someone who treats me as a living creature, as a human." Ridiculous. I saw those people laugh in front of me, and if they install that program in my system, I'd laugh at the words she just said. "I thought you treat me as a human." I fooled her well; she thought I'm a human who treats her as a human?
"By now you probably see me as an 'evil' person. Trust me, I hate to lie. But sometimes, the truth hurts more than a lie." Yesterday Ididlie, but I did that so she'd hate a little faith in me. I guessed she has more faith than I could imagine.
"Now… You don't understand do you? Putin-sama shared it with me. He taught me the joy and sadness of humans. And it made me wish to be one of them. Don't you… have free will? Or are you one of those androids… who can only do what their master told them to do?" I do have free will. It's already a part of me even before I first opened my eyes.
'Activating: Envy, Gluttony, Wrath, and Greed Program'
"Don't compare me with those failures. I do have free will, but those people's command has to come first. If it isn't for their order, I would've force you to shut down with my belt. Unlike your useless belt, my belt can give out electricity. With a single touch of my belt you could over circuit and would never be 'revived'. You're not the only one suffering, I too need electricity now, my battery is no longer full. It'd be easier to do that to you, after this I could just… hibernate. You should consider lucky that your system is still running."
'De-activating: Envy, Gluttony, Wrath, Pride, Greed, Sloth Program'
"It doesn't matter. You'll never leave this building anyway. No one from Crypton is going to come here to look for you. Like me, that human 'Putin-sama' most probably lied to you so you'd keep doing a good job, stop believing that humans treat you the same, it's annoying knowing someone believes in that."
It's amazing how words could freeze that android. She was speechless for more than 2 hours after I said it. Why did my words matter so much to her? In those 2 hours, I wondered for an answer. Why did her inventor install those 'feelings'? It'd make everything easier if he didn't. No matter, after those people are done experimenting her, she'd be in the trash bin. Either that or she'd be kept in the storage room.
That 'Putin-sama' might be her inventor… I searched in the data base and found no result of him. CV02-RIN's inventor is Piko Utatane, his name wasn't Putin. Then I realized something.
P (Piko)
U (Utatane)
T (uTatane)
I (PIko)
N (utataNe).
Knowing that wouldn't change a thing. So what if I know what his creator's name is? Thinking is tiring. Especially after those 7 programs activated by itself. How irritating, I really need to uninstall those 'feelings'. What good is it to feel those 7 things?
'Activating: Envy Program'.
While she enjoyed her 7 things, I'm suffering because of my 7 programs. At least she'd have his last shut down in a couple hours.
'De-activating: Envy Program'.
'60% battery remaining.'
I could see her eyes got dimmer and dimmer for the last few hours. She doesn't give up easily, and no matter what I said to her. I still have 60% battery remaining, I estimated she probably has… 3% remaining?
"So, how many minutes do you have left?" I saw her closed her eyes after I said that. I leaned closer to her, and checked if there is electricity flowing. None, nothing was there. I opened her 'eyes' and no light was there. Our design was similar; our 'eyes' would glow if we're active.
My job was done; CV02-Rin had shut down. I contacted one of those people through the microphone attached to my headphone, wondering when they'd answer my call.
"She's off. Where should I bring her to?"

Firewall is a system designed to prevent unauthorized access to / from a private network.
I just found out how Piko's name is 'related' to Putin, I just take its first 2 letters, and then the second 2 letters, and wow... Coincidence? xD
According to Vocaloid Wiki, CV stands for Character Vocaloid, just so you know. (This info will be quite useful for the next few chapters)
The seven programs installed in Len are the seven deadly sins. All of them are bad programs but they're necessary for the story.
When Rin mentions 'those people' she's referring to those workers in Crypton.
When Len mentions 'those people' he's referring to those workers in F. Media.
